Sandro Tonali

It’s not just Tonali, but pairing him with Fernandes is just a dream. Signing just one is good but get them in the middle of the park and we are motoring

I really like Tonali, but think perhaps we may be overpaying - but then again, it ain’t my money!

If we follow that up with two attacking players we'd be much improved on paper.

Worth remembering nothing has been confirmed yet re MF or NT though

Richy has a poor individual game too. Can't stay on his feet much, not smart enough to evade his markers.

Pretty much everyone agrees that our chance creation was absolutely abysmal last season. Forwards play a part in that with their runs, but if we significantly improve our midfield and left wing, our forwards, no matter how poor they are, should score more goals.

More goals = more suitors and more money when you sell.

On the other hand, buying a new striker without addressing the left wing problem means there's a chance he'd flop too. Again, neither Richarlison nor Solanke are world beaters, but it's not a stretch to imagine they'd get better stats with better midfielders behind them.

They are poor but undoubtedly with a high quality midfield they would score far more and cause more problems.
